Custom Software Development under NIST SP 800-53

Compliance-aligned custom software development meeting NIST SP 800-53 requirements

Overview

JaMaxwell builds custom applications for federal agencies using agile sprints with integrated security testing at every stage. Our DevSecOps pipelines automate code scanning, container image analysis, dependency checking, and deployment to staging and production environments. Applications are built to meet Section 508 accessibility standards and NIST SP 800-53 security controls from the first sprint.

NIST SP 800-53 Requirements

NIST SP 800-53 Rev 5 provides the control catalog that underpins FISMA, FedRAMP, and most federal security programs. The catalog includes over 1,000 controls across 20 families: Access Control, Audit, Security Assessment, Configuration Management, Contingency Planning, Identification and Authentication, Incident Response, Maintenance, Media Protection, Physical Protection, Planning, Personnel Security, Risk Assessment, Systems and Communications Protection, System and Information Integrity, and others. JaMaxwell implements and assesses controls at Low, Moderate, and High baselines.
